A special HoloLens version of Minecraft really brings its world to life

16 Jun 2015

Today, Microsoft showed off HoloLens technology at work using Mojang’s Minecraft.

Using a version of the game built specifically for HoloLens, the wearable tech projected the game onto a nearby wall.

The demo then was projected onto a nearby table, bringing the world of Minecraft to life.

With the wearable lens, the player could enter buildings, zoom in and zoom out at will and experience the world of Minecraft in 3D.

We’re hoping to see more of HoloLens at E3.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
